Gopalganj Introduction DISTRICT PROFILE GOPALGANJ INTRODUCTION Gopalganj district is one of the thirty-eight administrative districts of Bihar. Gopalganj sub-division was notified as a district on October 2, 1973. Gopalganj district falls in Saran division. Gopalganj is bounded by the districts of Patna, Samastipur, Khagaria, Munger and Lakhisarai. The river flowing through Gopalganj district is Gandak. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The composite Saran district lies on one of the main lines of the eastwards progression of the Aryans. According to the Vedic traditions, Videhas marched eastwards from the Saraswati and made the eastern banks of river Gandak their home. After crossing river Gandak, the Videhas founded a powerful kingdom on its eastern bank. It is likely that some of them settled in Saran, while the majority of them crossed the river Gandak. In pre- historic times, the present districts of Gopalganj and Siwan up to the bank of river Saryu which bounds Siwan district on its south, was a part of Nepal. The name Siwan means the boundary i.e. the southern boundary of the erstwhile Nepal kingdom. The history of Gopalganj is the history of Saran district. The ancient state of "Mallyas“ served as the frontier of Gopalganj. Saran was part of Kaushal kingdom. During the medieval period, Gopalganj came under the control of the Afghans and Mughals. Under the British, the district of Gopalganj was a Kingdom of Maharaja Fateh Shahi of Hussaipur. Until 1875 A.D., the tiny hamlet of Gopalganj was an Anchal within the erstwhile Saran district. In 1875, Gopalganj Anchal was upgraded to the status of a sub- division of the erstwhile Saran district. Erstwhile Saran district consisted of the three sub-divisions of Sadar, Siwan and Gopalganj. Sub-division Gopalganj was further elevated as a full-fledged independent revenue district on 2nd October, 1973. ADMINISTRATIVE Gopalganj town is the district headquarters of Gopalganj district.

  • Saran Introduction
    DISTRICT PROFILE SARAN INTRODUCTION Saran district is one of the thirty-eight districts of Bihar. Saran district is a part of Saran division. Saran district is also known as Chhapra district because the headquarters of this district is Chhapra. Saran district is bounded by the districts of Siwan, Gopalganj, West Champaran, Muzaffarpur, Patna, Vaishali and Bhojpur of Bihar and Ballia district of Uttar Pradesh. Important rivers flowing through Saran district are Ganga, Gandak, and Ghaghra which encircle the district from south, north east and west side respectively. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Saran was earlier known as ‘SHARAN’ which means refuge in English, after the name given to a Stupa (pillar) built by Emperor Ashoka. Another view is that the name Saran has been derived from SARANGA- ARANYA or the deer forest since the district was famous for its forests and deer in pre-historic times. In ancient days, the present Saran division, formed a part of Kosala kingdom. According to 'Ain-E-Akbari’, Saran was one of the six Sarkars/ revenue divisions, constituting the province of Bihar. By 1666, the Dutch established their trade in saltpetre at Chhapra. Saran was one of the oldest and biggest districts of Bihar. In 1829, Saran along with Champaran, was included in the Patna Division. Saran was separated from Champaran in 1866 when Champaran district was constituted. In 1981, the three subdivisions of the old Saran district namely Saran, Siwan and Gopalganj became independent districts which formed a part of Saran division. There are a few villages in Saran which are known for their historical and social significance.
